Lately I’ve decided that when I get my next phone, it will be white. It’s not just an aesthetic thing though the brightness of white is kind of nice. It’s actually much more practical: you don’t see fingerprints, smudge marks, or greasiness on white quite as obviously as you do on black. The more I use my phone, the more convinced I am of the benefits of a white device. I guess part of the problem is that I use quite a bit of lotion and the smooth screen of the phone gets covered in a layer of it. After a couple months of use, no amount of wiping, buffing, or cleansing seems to work for very long. I even have a microfiber towel handy at my desk to clean off the screen periodically.
My iPad is white and I if it weren’t for the screen turning black when it’s off, I’d probably notice the smudges only once every ten uses instead of once every use. I know a lot of people use screen protectors for this very purpose, but I like how the screen feels with nothing on it to alter it. Unfortunately that also means that I have to clean the thing every time I use it. I think it’ll also be a nice change from all the black devices out there. It’s nice to have a bright spot among all the dark. I wonder if Apple will ever go back to trying to offer their products in a range of colors. I think that could be quite nice too! I’d probably be the odd one choosing orange to tout around, just because it is so cheery and eye-catching. In the mean time I’ll just have to stick with white.
